Speaking on someone whose brain actually has an evil mode to flip to, it doesn't work like that. There's a part of you that's you, and will always be you, and when you grow up, it'll still be you, even if the parts on the edges change a little. If you ever do bad things, it'll be a conscious choice, and like all choices, that means you get to decide it. You can just...always choose not to be that way. So just always choose not to be that way.

And you're a child that's going to grow up into a grown up, and learn stuff, and use your brain for stuff, and you'll be one of those people that figures out how to cure me of an alien virus so I can go punch Ohm in the faceplate or figures out the best places to point me at to go punch them, or you'll learn to fight, or you'll make weapons, or you'll teach other kids stuff, or you'll find something that helps the people here, just like everyone else. Right now, you're growing up into that grown up, and that's important. We're gonna be doin' this for a while, kiddo, that's already kinda clear, and you'll already start hitting Useful-Land in your teen years, most likely.
